20 DIY Outdoor Summer Projects You Need to Try

Summer is here, and I couldn’t be any more excited! I love it in all its glory; hot weather, sunshine, cool relaxing evenings, swimming, gardening, and so much more. You name it, I love it (and, I love it even more since we just got an a/c unit! YAY!)! I also love working outside and making fun things, just as any DIYer does. I’ve been eyeing all sorts of awesome DIY outdoor projects around blogland lately, and I thought it was time I put them all into one place for you (and me!).

From repurposed beverage carts to fairy gardens to DIY water walls, there are projects below for any skill level. While we currently have a tiny little yard, I still want to try every single one of these at some point because they are all so cool. I guess we just need to find a bigger house! Poor David. 😉

Enjoy these 20 DIY outdoor summer projects!

I loved your garden hose stand before when I saw it and just love how it turned out. All of these projects have me wanting to get outside and get busy. Thank you for featuring my garden markers as well. Have a great rest of the week!

I agree with you, Amanda! We “need” bigger yards! lol! I want to try soo many of these! I’ve wanted a beverage cart for soo long…. and love that little caddy too! Would be so handy for suppers on the deck! And of course your hose hanger is perfection! Thanks for including my metal chair makeover! You’re the best, girl! xo

Ha, so true!! Someday! 😉 And a beverage cart would be SO awesome! I even have a changing table I could convert, I just have nowhere to put it! You’re so welcome, I just love the colors you chose for those chairs! 🙂

Hi, Amanda ~ I’m super excited for summer, too! All of these projects are adorable! My daughter would LOVE to recreate that fairy garden, and I think I could talk Hubs into helping me make a few DIY patio tables… Thanks for rounding all of this up!
